Within the first few minutes of this album it is apparent that it isn't typical formulaic post rock. Do Make Say Think incorporate jazz leanings into their sound making for a different experience than most post rock bands provide. There are times on this that I felt were drawn out longer than needed, but overall this is an enjoyable piece of music that's rating will grow as I put more time into it.

Yet another album that straddles the line between post rock and post metal, Caspian are a fairly traditional post rock/metal band who occasionally throw vocals into the mix to change thigs up. The vocals work quite well, and are often folky in tone. There are some beautiful moments on this record.

The electronic and math flairs are a nice touch, but at times it makes the album feel robotic. This may have been what the band was going for, but I usually prefer my post rock to be a bit more lush. Still an enjoyable listen.

While the concept of combining post rock and grind is interesting in theory, the execution leaves much to be desired. At points this sounds like an unlawful marriage between chiptune and prog. It does have its moments though.
